Definition. The Environmental Health Coordinator shall be under the
direction of the Board of Health. The Environmental Health Coordinator
shall perform the sanitary inspection work involving the enforcement
of relevant public health laws within the Township. The Environmental
Health Coordinator shall direct all other sanitary inspectors and
shall also do related work as required.

Whenever the Sanitary Inspector of the Board of Health finds
that the public safety will not permit delay, he may exercise one
or more of the following powers without having to resort to legal
proceedings and without the necessity of giving notice or holding
any hearing which would otherwise be required under any provisions
of this Revision.

Power to Prevent the Sale of Food. The Sanitary Inspector may prohibit
the importation into the Township or sale of any food, drink or other
item intended for human consumption or use from a source suspected
of being infected, contaminated, unsanitary, unhealthy or dangerous.

Power to Seize and Destroy Unwholesome Food. The Sanitary Inspector
may order the seizure and destruction of any food, drink or other
item intended for human consumption which is dangerous or likely to
cause sickness or injury to consumers.

The Board of Health, its agents and employees shall have the
right to inspect any premises in the Township upon reasonable belief
that any provision of this Revision is being violated, or if the inspection
is part of a regular program of inspection.

If the owner or occupant of any premises refuses to permit entry
for the purpose of inspection, the Board of Health may apply to the
Municipal Judge of the Township for a search warrant. The application
shall be based upon an affidavit setting forth that the inspection
is part of a regular program of inspection or that conditions and
circumstances provide a reasonable basis for believing that a nuisance
or unsanitary or unhealthy condition exists on the premises. If the
Judge is satisfied as to the matters set forth in the affidavit, he
shall authorize the issuance of a search warrant permitting access
to and inspection of the premises.

Any person who has reason to believe that food being offered
for sale for human consumption is spoiled, contaminated or otherwise
unfit, shall immediately report such fact to the Board of Health or
to one of its officers or inspectors.

The Board of Health may, by resolution, make rules and regulations
which interpret or amplify any provision of this Revision. No regulation,
however, shall be inconsistent with, alter or amend any provision
of this Revision and no regulation shall impose any requirement which
is in addition to or greater than the requirements that are expressly
or by implication imposed by any provision of this Revision.
